    Anyone else tempted to go with Salah over Haaland for captaincy?

    1. LC1
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 26 days ago

      I would captain him over Haaland if I owned him

    2. twoplustwo

      Good chance for a high scoring week all round tbh. But sticking with Haaland.

    3. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 4 Years
      1 month, 26 days ago

      It's a good fixture potentially.

    4. ran
      • 3 Years
      1 month, 26 days ago

      Haaland with the early kickoff too.

      Go with Salah(C) a better choice?

  2. Sheffield Wednesday

    1 month, 26 days ago

    It must be demoralising having to come up with alternatives to Haaland in these articles.

    WC Team;

    Raya
    Gabriel TAA Davis
    Saka Diaz Mbeumo Rogers
    Haaland Watkins DCL

    Van den Berg Faes Dibling

    If Raya is out I'll move him to Flekken and Davis to Saliba.

    GTG chaps?

    1. The Iceman
      • 2 Years

      Yeah, looks pretty spot on.

      Very close to mine, further down this page. Good idea with Flekken/Saliba

      1. LC1
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 26 days ago

        Yep identical bar 2 players!

        In response to your post - I'm completely stuck on Raya or not too .. I think Arteta will be extremely vague, which leads me to think I'll likely do the above changes and not risk having non playing keepers.

        GL mate!

        1. El_Matador
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Yeah it's starting to feel too risky

    4. Not again Shirley

      Don’t think you need Raya personally as you already have 1 arsenal defence. There are lots of other keeper options. Pickford or Onana for example.

  4. MetallicaJack93
    • 1 Year
    1 month, 26 days ago

    Keep Raya?

    Would be a -4 to swap out - already have Gabriel.

    Who would you get in if so

    1. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 4 Years
      1 month, 26 days ago

      Risk going without a keeper this week rather than take a hit.

  5. londonarsenal
      1 month, 26 days ago

      Raya
      Konsa Lewis TAA
      Saka Mbeumo Rogers Diaz ESR
      Haaland Solanke

      bench: matthews, wood, munoz, greaves

      Thoughts, lads?
      cheers

        • 6 Years
        1 month, 26 days ago

        Have finally settled on my WC team. Decided to go with some small differences.

        Flekken
        Lewis Saliba TAA
        Saka Mbeumo Rogers Tavernier
        Haaland Watkins DCL

        Vladimarsson, Maddison, Mykolenko, Greaves

        Who to bench this week?
        A) Rogers
        B) Maddison

        1. boombaba
          • 11 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          A

        2. The Iceman

          A

      5. JT11fc
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 26 days ago

        I need a 3.9 player to afford Semenyo, however Semenyo will probably rise at the same time they potentialy fall.....nice

        1. JT11fc
          • 6 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Hmm, maybe Tavernier or Sinisterra instead

        2. The Iceman
          • 2 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Can't believe we don't have a single 3.9 GK or DEF yet...

        3. Chris_l25

          Are you on WC? What does the rest of your squad look like?

          1. JT11fc
            • 6 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            Yes, currently on
            Pickford Fab
            Trent Gab Lewis Milenkovic 4.0
            Saka Mboomo Diaz Mcneil 4.4
            Havertz Haaland Jackson

            0.1itb
            Pickford to Sanchez would get 0.1

            1. Chris_l25
              • 7 Years
              1 month, 26 days ago

              Could you go Pickford to Sels and Milenkovic to Mykolenko? That should free up 0.5 and you'd still have Forest and Everton defence covered

              1. Chris_l25
                • 7 Years
                1 month, 26 days ago

                You could then also upgrade your 4.4 to Dibling who is looking really attacking and seems a genuine option should be need to come in

              2. JT11fc
                • 6 Years
                1 month, 26 days ago

                Thanks thats a good shout actually, Dibling also would give more peace of mind.

                What a great response.

                This is what people come here for. Took the time to first check if it was on WC, read the full team, look at options, check prices, and then come up with a good suggestion.

                Marvelous and selfless.

        Nothing heard so far, BBC have only said that Howe & Slot are due this morning. Finding them increasingly meaningless this season anyway.

        I think we could almost scrap this captaincy article until GW13. Haaland perma cap until then.

        1. Sheffield Wednesday
          • 4 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          I can't see the content following the "Player Statistics" headline - is the answer still Haaland this week?

            Actually RMT has Saka #1

              Cheers. Home fixture against Leicester does stand out, provided no more Arsenal players on YC kick the ball away this week.

        What are you Jota owners doing? Keeping one more week?

        1. The Iceman
          • 2 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Unless you're on a WC, I would definitely keep for one more week.

        2. chocolove
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Keep. His starting chance is great this week.

        3. chocolove
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          And I will sell just before he go down in price

        4. Sheffield Wednesday
          • 4 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Jota sold himself last week. Expect he hauls against Wolves and then kicks himself.

        Henderson
        TAA / Porro / Myko
        Salah / Eze / Rogers / Semenyo
        Wood / Havertz / Haaland

        Vlad / ESR / Robinson / THB

        Team gtg?

        1. Braamish
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Can you get in Gabriel?

          1. ran
            • 3 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            Yes I can. But I would rather have Mbeumo in for Eze. Higher chance for a big haul and excellent fixtures till around gw13.

      13. Roshen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        a. Aina, Mazraoui, Semenyo, Solanke

        1. Braamish

          B

        2. The Iceman
          • 2 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          A because I don't see Larsen ever scoring enough justify being picked.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        0.1 away from the below so think I'll to move Davis to a 4.4 defender. Any suggestions?

        Flekken
        Gabriel / TAA / Davis
        Diaz / Rogers / Saka / Mbeumo
        Haaland / Havertz / Jackson

        Vladimarsson / ESR / Greaves / Faes

        1. Roshen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 2 Years

          Mykolenko for 4.3 looks good with upcoming fixtures

          1. The Iceman
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            This (+ an extra 0.1 for emergencies).

          2. ran
            • 3 Years

            Is Myko nailed at LB?

        2. Chris_l25
          • 7 Years

          I've gone Ait Nouri. Fixtures turn from GW9 so he can sit on my bench until then

      15. Braamish
        • 14 Years
        1 month, 26 days ago

        My conundrum is around Salah.
        A) keep him and transfer Pedro for Strand Larsen who rotates well with Rogers
        B) transfer him for Saka allowing me to get in Solanke/jackson for Pedro

        *i have Havertz

        1. The Iceman
          • 2 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Keep Salah.

          1. Braamish
            • 14 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            Thanks

        2. Haa-lala-land
          • 4 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Runnerboy was just saying above, Salah feels like a definite sell. He'll get points but Diaz should be enough if you want Pool, for nearly half Salahs price

          1. Braamish
            • 14 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            This is the conundrum! It’s almost a coin flip

            1. The FPL Units
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              1 month, 26 days ago

              On WC, sure get rid of Salah, with just transfers keep thus week and then assess.

          2. The Iceman
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            I currently own both but I'm under no illusion that Diaz is at risk. LFC have an abundance of attackers who favour the left side but not so much the right (Gakpo in particular is playing really well himself). Plus Salah is 100% nailed, on penalties, and has no AFCON disruption this season.

            1. Braamish
              • 14 Years
              1 month, 26 days ago

              Great points here Iceman

          3. chocolove
            • 13 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            So 8.0 is half of 12.8
            Not even near.

            1. x.jim.x
              • 10 Years
              1 month, 26 days ago

              Diaz is like 60% of Salah's price tbf - you could buy a 16th player with that difference (if the game let you)

        Good to go this week?

        Henderson
        Gabriel Konate Mazaroui
        Saka Diaz Mbeumo ESR
        Haaland (c) Watkins Havertz

        Bentley Faes Johnson Sangare

        1. Braamish
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 26 days ago

          Yes

      18. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 month, 26 days ago

        I think I'm going all-in with the intention to sell Diaz and/or Havertz relatively soon and upgrade defense.

        Sels 4.0
        TAA Gabriel VdB Greaves Bednarek
        Saka Diaz Mbeumo Rogers Dibling
        Haaland Havertz Watkins

        The 4.0s all start at the moment and if VdB is indeed nailed I might not even have to upgrade the defense. Higher risk but I'd get Diaz for this game and then can reevaluate.

        I'm just not convinced on the cheap forwards so I want to have the premium frontline.

        Semenyo + Gvardiol vs Diaz + Bednarek is a tough choice but Semenyo feels kind of short-term and I'd like to have Diaz vs Wolves then can decide how to reallocate funds into the defense. I know it's weak but I don't know yet who from the attack is the most dispensable so maybe the best play is to just get them all and then in a week or two I'd take my 2+ FTs with more time to decide and reallocate into defense.

        Having 3x 4.0s also means I can sell the worst one from the 3 for an upgrade to someone like Porro, Gvardiol or even Lewis. I'd like for that to be Bednarek but ofc VdB might not be nailed and could be a sell.

        Putting the absolute maximum on the field - A staple of my strategy so it feels right. But let's see.

          I like your style (see below)

          Is Bednarek a better pick than Bellis now?

          I’m pretty sure Palmer & Salah will both pound your rank

            Then they will hit 90% off engaged managers who WC this week as well. I see very few WCs with Palmer or Salah. And I'm willing to bet against them.

            Palmer especially I don't think he's worth the premium with the fixtures they have. Salah is gonna score points no matter what but the sacrifice to get him is too great for me. Can't have everyone.

              Fair enough. On board with the 3x4.0 def since gw 3 but double sou has been a mess. Probably getting rid of Bellis soon

          That WC team feels very short term.

            It is. I have 2 FTs banked and plan to roll in GW7 so I'll have 3 to use after the IB.

        Was quite happy with the WC but not sure about the Rata situation now? No rolled up FTs next week as I dead ended into WC6.

        Raya*
        TAA Gabriel Pinnock
        Saka Diaz Mbeumo Rogers
        DCL Watkins Haaland

        Fab Winks Greaves Bellis

        With no real sub keeper, do I risk it?

          The draft is good. Let's see what Arteta says. He'll either say nothing/something vague about checking him in training or that Raya is out for a while.

          I highly doubt we'll get any news regarding Raya being fit or not for this weekend. It's enough for me to go off him. I think I'll wait until GW12 when the fixtures turn for good for Arsenal and it's why I'm going Sels who has great fixtures until then and doesn't block a Brentford slot.

        If Raya is out, would you settle on:

        1. Sanchez (Not the easiest fixtures, had some luck before but Cheslea not worst xGA wise and good saves wise)
        2. Sels (Great xGA wise but the fixtures totally don't convince me, not many saves)
        3. Flekken (Great fixtures but tragic xGA so far)

          goalkeeper picks are quite hard and so boring

        2. Andrew
          • 12 Years

          I'd go Flekken

        3. Braamish

          I’m just sitting in Raya

        What are you doing with this team? At a bit of a loss

        2fts. No money

          You gotta get Pedro out and perhaps downgrade palmer to free up funds for a better second striker. Keep some funds available for a jota>Diaz transfer next week.

          Use Jota/Eze for funds to upgrade Pedro

            • 4 Years
            1 month, 26 days ago

            Jota is touted to start Vs Wolves, which is more annoying than anything. Makes it harder to get rid.

              Yes so frustrating. I was ready to sell this week

        Best combo ?

        A) Flekken / Saliba / Greaves / Jackson

        B) Flekken / Lewis / Konsa / Havertz

        C) Raya / Lewis / Myko / Jackson

        D) Raya / Lewis / Konsa / DCL (1.4m itb)

          You don't buy Lewis to bench him against Newcastle. Leave that to Pep.

      24. Merlin the Wraith

        Isak still out with toe injury.

      25. Stig
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 26 days ago

        A) Watkins + Semenyo + Konsa
        B) Solanke + Diaz + 4m defender

        (Note: Lewis would be 3rd defender so above defender may be called upon)

        B- Aina Saka Díaz Watkins
